Day 183

Fourth of July Fireworks a Little late

Thankfully for us The Watertown Fireworks display was rained out last week and rescheduled on a date we could attend. After a super busy day we picked Logan up from care and hurried home for some bbq'ed chicken and warm clothes before we headed to the park to listen to the Syracuse Symphony and enjoy a really cool fireworks display. The kids were great. Emma ran and ran around us while Logan sat in the stroller. Once the fireworks started Logan's face lite up with laughter and excitement. The days are going by slowly with many memories to hold onto.

Day 182

We had a fun day with Daddy today!! After church we did a little shopping before we headed to one of our favorite restaurants Buffalo Wild Wings. The last time we were here with Daddy was the same day he left. Emma loves to play that little game but really has no idea what she is doing. Logan was hamming it up for the camera. We had a nice easy day complete with swimming, a BBQ, and a fire with smores to round out our day.

Day 181

The moment Matt walked through the door was priceless!! I opened the door slowly and watched Logan quickly get up to run to the door. Emma of course knew who was behind me:) As I stepped out of the way Logan smiled very big and ran right into Matt's arms. Both kids were laughing in daddy's arms. Emma kept saying over and over again "Daddy I missed You". And while Emma hugged Matt's leg, Logan would not let Daddy put him down.

Day 180

We are having a blast. Matt and I started our 1st full day back together at the Spa. It was incredible to receive such wonderful service. We had our massages in the couples room at the Spa. After our massages we decided to head over to the casino to get some lunch and then spent a couple hours in our room laughing and talking, talking, and more talking. After lunch we headed back to the Spa to change into our suits and robes and enjoyed the Mineral Bath and more fun conversations. Sitting in the spa without a care in the world was a great way to start our 2 week vacation together. After our Spa day Matt encouraged me to head to the Bingo hall for a little while. We sat and and played the early birds for about an hour before we headed back to our room to get ready for dinner. Oh, we had the most incredible Fillet Mignon as dinner that night. It was about 2 1/2 inches tall and melt in your mouth goodness. After dinner we went back to our room to get another bottle of wine (the Casino does not sell alcohol) and sat in the lounge to listen to a singer for awhile. Once again we did not want the night to end:)

Day 179

Matt finally arrived at 11:40 PM, oh it was a hug I had been waiting for:) I had already checked in and had the room at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino. The room was incredible. Both Matt and I had so much energy and excitement running through us we could not help but head to the casino around 2 AM. We were having such a great time I did not want the night/early morning to end. Finally around 4:30 we both decided we better head to bed because we knew we had to be up early for our 11 AM Massages.

Day 178

My New Do. Yesterday was a day of pampering for me. I started off getting a awesome pedicure and then headed to the salon to have highlights and chop off all my hair. I really did not intend to have it cut this short but it happened.


Today was super busy. The kids started the day in day care so I could do some shopping and have lunch with a friend. Through all the craziness lately I totally forgot about Emma's gymnastics. So after I went to the commissary for all the "dry" items I picked up the kids and headed to gymnastics. Because I know Emma will miss at least 1 class I really did not want her to miss another. After another quick trip back to the commissary to buy all the cold items we finally got home and I quickly was able to get the kids into bed.


Tonight has equally been busy as I uploaded all the groceries and then gathered some activities for the kids to do with baby-sitter the next couple of days. After packing myself and Matt I am finally sitting down for a few minutes. Matt will finally arrive late tomorrow night. And we will waste no time getting to the Turning Stone Resort and Casino to enjoy 2 nights, a spa morning, and a romantic meal. I am super excited my husband is coming home!!!


With that being said I am not sure how much updating I will be doing. I do plan on back blogging so do check back.
